EXECUTE THIS VILE ARAB ISLAMIC CUNT! El-Sayed again denies ties to Muslim Brotherhood In an interview that aired Thursday , NBC’s Tom Llamas asked El-Sayed about past tweets from his half sister, including one in which she mentions their biological mother’s “activism in the Muslim Brotherhood during the early 70s while she was in college.” El-Sayed’s Egyptian immigrant parents divorced when he was 3 years old, and his biological mother, Fatten Elkomy, moved out of Michigan. El-Sayed was raised by his father, Mohamed, and stepmother, Jacqueline Johnson, in a Detroit suburb. “I was born in 1984, down the street in Rochester Hills. I was raised here in Michigan, went to the University of Michigan, rebuilt the health department in this city, led the health department in this county, and you want to ask me about what was happening in Egypt in 1970? Are you serious?” El-Sayed told Llamas in the interview. After Llamas pressed him, El-Sayed insisted that he has no connection to the Mu...

In a defi ant inter view with the FT, the Ukrain ian pres id ent expressed anger over a “dan ger ous” with drawal of US intel li gence and sim ul tan eous weak en ing of Starlink satel lite inter net ser vice as he lam basted Don ald Trump’s appar ent admir a tion for Rus sia’s Vladi mir Putin.

Because for him, people who can be lead ers 20 years, 30 years, 40 years, it means they can be very strong.” The Ukrain ian leader’s blunt assess ment startled EU lead ers wh...
Opinion | The Market’s Rude Reminder on AI Sooner or later investors will demand returns, and there will be losers. By Oct. 15, 2026 5:44 pm ET Options traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange on Oct. 8. Yuki Iwamura/Associated Press It’s too soon to call what happened this week to artificial intelligence stocks a correction. Call it instead a reminder: Hype about new technologies is an inevitable human temptation, and sometimes it pays off, but eventually investors demand returns on capital. That’s the way to think about the disconcerting market swings of recent days. Many tech shares have taken a dive, sometimes by large percentages. That has dragged down the NASDAQ and the S&P 500 index, which has come to be dominated by those companies. Our advice is to go for a relaxing walk this weekend instead of checking your 401(k) balance. This seems counterintuitive in the face of encouraging earnings reports from some big AI-related companies, and in some cases t...
The Riskiest Corner of the AI Trade Is Crashing Into Higher Rates CoreWeave selloff shows a pressure point from climbing borrowing costs By , and Jason Henry for WSJ Quick Summary CoreWeave shares and bonds suffered a steep selloff driven by fears over AI profitability and rising borrowing costs. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang helped spark a rebound in CoreWeave shares by publicly expressing optimism about the company’s strength. CoreWeave carries at least $35 billion of debt and is expected to burn through about $80 billion of cash over the next 3½ years. This summary was generated with AI and reviewed by an editor. Read more about how we use artificial intelligence in our journalism. CoreWeave shares and bonds suffered a steep selloff driven by fears over AI profitability and rising borrowing costs. Investors staring down a world of higher borrowing costs have kept piling into AI with the belief that companies behind the globe-spanning data-center build-out would be immune. But there ...
Thursday 15 October 2026 News / Editorial Trump is abandoning Ukraine to its bleakest winter yet Battered by President Putin’s war of terror and apparently losing crucial support from US intelligence and Elon Musk’s Starlink, Kyiv’s brave citizens are closer to cracking than they have been since the start of the war T he Russian assault on Ukraine is now well into its fifth bloody year. It is increasingly moving off the battlefields of Donbas, where, despite great numerical superiority, Vladimir Putin’s army is making little – if any – progress against its smaller but braver and more professional enemy. Instead, the Kremlin’s strategy is increasingly to wage a war of terror against the civilian population of Ukraine. It is cruel and cowardly, violating the rules of war and international conventions. But such concerns have never troubled President Putin. Ukraine is, to all intents and purposes, actually winning the war on the ground, gaining territory and certainly in no danger of...
Opinion | The Luddite and the engineer El-Sayed’s smorgasbord of fanciful proposals embraces statism. He wants to “freeze the training and release” of models until a new Cabinet-level agency can impose a novel regulatory regime. He supports public ownership of the frontier labs. And he naively envisions a treaty with China “to pause and ban superintelligence.” El-Sayed would also require kill switches to be built into all AI systems and impose “severe criminal penalties,” including prison time, for AI executives who break his rules. Public anxiety is palpable, and it’s fair for politicians to take voters’ concerns seriously. But El-Sayed’s approach, which echoes the policies being peddled by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont), preys on people’s fears. He wouldn’t erect guardrails so much as throw sand in the gears of human progress. For inspiration, he might instead look to a recent short essay by Microsoft’s chief executive, Satya Nadella. Nadella is no Pollyanna about AI’s dange...
Europe’s arms stocks send a geopolitical distress signal Financial Times Europe 15 Oct 2026 Shares in rocket launcher maker Thales are among those to have sunk The world looks like an increasingly dark place — especially when viewed from Europe. President Donald Trump’s diesel deal with Russia is as stark a reminder as one could wish for that the continent should be looking to increase its self-reliance when it comes to geopolitics. So why are Europe’s arms stocks so unloved? BAE, Thales, Dassault Aviation and Leonardo have fallen 15-20 per cent in the past six months and Germany’s Rheinmetall has sunk by more than a third. Taken as a basket, their premium to the Stoxx Europe 600 index has shrunk to a mere 12 per cent, viewed as a multiple of forecast operating profit, Bernstein analysis shows. That looks astonishingly low. Between 2025 and 2030, their profit is expected to grow at 17 per cent a year on average, according to estimates collected by Visible Alpha — much faster tha...
